Written byChase BinnieChase Binnie

A judge has ruled that Burger King must face a lawsuit alleging that its Whopper burgers appear larger and meatier on its menus than in reality. The lawsuit, filed in 2022, accuses Burger King of misleading customers about its menu items by changing images to make the burgers seem bigger, with allegations of an increase in both overall size and beef content. While some claims in the lawsuit were dismissed, the judge allowed the case to proceed regarding breach of contract, negligent misrepresentation, and unjust enrichment allegations.
